Although the visualizer is still a bit rough, I've put together an index page where you can now download maps/stats, but also go straight to visualizations of exploration traces for the games I've been mapping (mostly Metroidvanias). The visualizer doesn't show multiple links or complex requirements well yet, and layouts are a challenge. But you can click around and see stuff, and the CSV files have interesting stats now (just submitted a paper for EXAG 2026 talking about metrics for discrete exploration games).

#HotTake on #VideoGames: I agree that we should stop calling #AdventureGames that lean heavily into their ability-gaining elements #Metroidvania games. The name implies similarities to #Metroid and #Castlevania that might not be there, and also that they invented elements which were also in the original #Zelda, #Adventure, and many other 80s adventure games.
Generally speaking, gaining abilities to access new areas is one of those true-to-life elements. It'd be like calling every arcade racing game an "F-Zero clone" or every First Person Shooter a "Doom Clone" when even Wolfenstein was far from the original FPS.

Today's Aerostrike progress report:
1) Demo map is about half-way built. I might make more adjustments down the line, but base functionality is done.

1) Replaced the placeholder UI sprites with new ones. I'm not sure if I'll keep them, but they do look better overall.

Today's Aerostrike progress report:
1) Working on creating the particle system. Main structure is set, and individual particle creation is underway.
2) Some of the new particles include explosions and weapon impact effects! I'll show more later in the week. -

Give me a #MetroidPrime5 that delves into the following:
The GF Squad was always working for #Sylux.
Now you know why the missed shots, why these four "held" Sylux in the climax to let Samus escape. There is a reason, and Metroid Prime 5 could tell it.

I always recommend to play Metroid: Zero Mission and Metroid Prime to start on the #Metroid franchise.
If you like Zero mission: Super Metroid (redux), then Metroid: Samus Returns, Metroid Fusion and Metroid Dread.
If you like Prime: Prime 2 Echoes, Prime 3 Corruption.
The rest of Metroid games only amount to a YouTube summary and a post on BlueSky.

I'll always favor the last version rather than the first in #MetroidPrime.
The first looks like somebody good the thing right, but is too oversized.
The one in Metroid Prime looks like someone is on the suit, like someone made the ultimate cosplay.

#MetroidPrime is not "dead".
https://medium.com/p/9c7a3755769f/
Their newer sales numbers are not to brag about, given how much #Nintendo invested on the game alone across two studios.
I believe the next #MetroidPrime5 will not have a huge investment in development. Who knows if they pivot to Unreal Engine 5 to keep costs down instead of their own engine + training.

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond should have been renamed to...
Samus: Combat Evolved

So I played #MetroidPrime4 past weekend.
It bored me after the lazo upgrade. I just went to check a let's play, saw the ending on YouTube, and move on.
I believe I'm ready to shit on #Highguard once it releases, not before playing #Dispatch now that it's complete.

#MetroidPrime4Beyond is the least #Metroid of the franchise, second to *that one*.

Neste vídeo, mostro o jogo Hollow Knight na versão nativa para Linux, em Full HD a 60 FPS na RX 550 — sem a interferência do OBS Studio. Isso só foi possível graças à placa de captura Husky Gaming. Meu velho laptop Dell Inspiron, com Intel Core i3 de quinta geração, foi usado para capturar a tela do meu PC principal.

#LegendaryDrops dropping the mic with #Silksong pricing.
If as a developer/publisher you don't like one of the best games of the year cost $20, then lower your costs.
"But, but... #TeamCherry has lots of money and time to make the sequel thanks to #HollowKnight sales!"
Then may be you shouldn't have to mortgage your house for that 2D dating simulator you're making. Cry me an Expedition 33.
